A word phrase that can be used for 7x - 2 would be as follows:

“Two less than the product of seven and a number”

The keyword “two less” means to subtract 2 from a number.

The keyword “product” means to multiply. When there is a coefficient represented by a number alongside a variable, they are multiplied.

The word phrase that is useable for the algebraic expression could be “two less than the product of seven and a number.”
